Year 5

Welcome to Year 5!

Our class teacher is Miss Kirkley, and we also have Miss Hespe, Mrs Wilkinson and Mrs Sirrell working with us in the classroom – we’re very popular!

Our classroom is at the top of the stairs on the left. We have a star chart, to keep note of our brilliant achievements, some French and English magnets on our filing cabinet, and even a challenge corner and a reading corner.

Our topic for the first term is the Ancient Greeks and this should cover our history, geography, art and design and technology lessons. We’ll be looking at recounts, instructions and persuasive writing among other things in Literacy. We will be working on perfecting our French accents and making our ways towards fluency before the end of the year in our language lessons and learning to be more independent in all areas, both in school and, with any luck, outside too.

We have two class friends – Brownie and Phoenix – and hopefully everyone in our class will get a chance to spend some time with one of them for a weekend over the year.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch or make an appointment via the school office. We look forward to a brilliant year!
